Family triumphs
SHUBHAM DUBEY
Movie: We are Family
Cast: Kajol, Arjun Rampal, Kareena Kapoor
Director Siddharth Malhotra doesn’t leave any stone unturned to ensure the success of his debut movie “We are family”. It’s a balanced mixture of light comedy and lots of emotions. The only negative point is that you already know what’s coming next. The movie entertains the […]

Desi rom-com
BIG SCREEN
Movie: Aisha
Cast: Sonam Kapoor, Abhay Deol, Ira Dubey, Cyrus Sahukar
Aisha the desi version of Jane Austen’s novel Emma (though quite out of tune when compared to either the book or BBC’s “Emma” 2009) is a light movie with catchy songs and has Sonam Kapoor looking her stylish best. It lacks a good sense of […]

Lifeless saga
BIG SCREEN

Remade
Although the Telugu film is a hit among the masses, the director who is known for his remakes seems to have […]

BIG SCREEN
Movie: Salt
Cast: Angelina Jolie, Liev Schreiber, Chiwetel Ejiofor
For a movie that was released at a time when the silver screen sizzlers like “Inception”, “Toy Story 3” and “Twilight Saga: Eclipse” hog the limelight, “Salt” has not done enough to keep up with the others in the hype-race. It’s a cult action-political espionage film whose […]

Sweet and sour
BIG SCREEN
Movie: Khatta Meetha
Cast: Akshay Kumar, Trisha Krishnan
Drawing inspiration from Priyadarshan’s own Malayalam movie “Vellaanakalude Naadu”, a social satire made in 1989, “Khatta Meetha” is not an out and out comedy, which it was promoted as. Director Priyadarshan has only been partly successful in adapting his friend Sreenivasan’s screenplay to Hindi, and comparing Akshay […]
